1930s US Coast Guard Sailor Archive Presidential Certificates Scrapbooks Yale
1930s US Coast Guard Sailor Archive Presidential Certificates Scrapbooks Yale Harvard. Sailor’s name was Emmet T. Nice archive, nothing was cherry picked out this is just how I got everything. 7 Certificates- Some are Presidential Promotions starting in 1933 from Franklin D. Roosevelt and one from Harry Truman. Signed by Secretary of the Treasury or the Asst secretary. They measure 16X20 1933 certificate from when he completed his training at the Coast Guard Academy. Latest certificate is his 1956 promotion to Captain. 1932 Domain of Neptunus Rex certificate from the USS Sebago. Certificates are overall in pretty good shape- Some are excellent, some have some light spotting/ soiling or a little wear. Also included are 2 scrapbooks- Both are partially full and Ive shown the majority of pages but theres probably 8 or so no shown that didnt have anything really “exciting” on them. Except for some loose items here and there, the stuff is glued in the scrapbooks. The smaller one is kind of falling apart but the bigger one is in better shape. Some coast guard items and stuff in the smaller one is about 1933/1934. Has a card/ ticket to the 1934 Yale Harvard Regatta. His wife attended Connecticut University so theres some stuff in there from her college days. The larger scrapbook has some newspaper clippings from Mardi Gras in Galveston TX. Has some clippings etc from the great 1938 Hurricane and another in 1944.
